Fast-track Approvals Act 2024

Fast-track approvals process - Panel consideration of substantive application - Hearing of panel

56: Hearing not required

You could also call this:

“The panel decides without listening to people talk”

You don’t need to worry about a panel having a hearing for a big application. The panel doesn’t have to have a hearing, and you don’t have the right to be heard by the panel. This means they can make decisions without listening to people talk about it in person.
